Wow, I have been slacking on the updates, eh? 

So I've realized that the end-of-school schedule is NUTS...especially when u multiply it by 14!!!!  I can't even count the ceremonies, graduations & bday  parties we've been honored to attend!  Such fun but I'm SO not a scheduler and this month has required even ME to keep a calendar!  UGH!  I'm ready for no-school/pool time schedule!  

Just thought I'd give a brief update on what God is rolling around in this silly little head of mine...

Don't get so busy you miss life.

The scriptures about not worrying about tomorrow and how He cares & provides for even the sparrows.... yeah, totally true.  (In case u were wondering! ha!)  Over and OVER we have seen Him come through in the midnight-hour to provide for anything He puts on our hearts.  

Grown ups are SO much more complicated than kids.  Take your shoes off, sit with them, and enjoy what He is doing.

Our garden is in full bloom and I'm amazed how these kids are ok with learning patience in a instant gratification world.  Peas and sunflowers are really amazing to watch grow and lettuce is trying on the patience.

A bored or hungry kid is often destructive.  Give them some food and something they are interested in....and then just sit back and watch.  Beautiful.

Our world may seem to be in chaos but there are some really beautiful people out there LIVING LOVE.  We have to stay focused on our hope and dreams.

It's late and I'm tired.  Before this turns into 'Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy' - I'm signing off.

I love you Jesus.  

Bless ya!
